Patrick Osborne celebrated his 50th game in Super Rugby in style, running in two tries for the Highlanders, Waisake Naholo was just as instrumental also running into 2 tries as the Highlanders recorded their highest ever total against the Stormers when they thrashed the South African franchise 57‑14 in Round 10.

The result means the Highlanders have now won six of their nine games this Super Rugby season and they are looking more and more dangerous every week.

Meanwhile, the Stormers woes on the road continue and have taken another backwards step after their strong start to the season.

Tonight the Chiefs will take on the Sunwolves at 7.35pm, while the Reds will face the Waratahs at 9.45pm.

The excitement is intense ahead of the Chiefs historic Round 10 match against the Sunwolves tonight in Waikato. 

It is the first time these two teams will meet in Investec Super Rugby history. 

Chiefs head coach Dave Rennie is meeting the challenge head on naming a strong, regenerated lineup to take on Japan’s sole Super Rugby side.
